Details on this Special Performance

“Encore” brings back audience favorites from Azara Ballet

Lost & Found | Choreographed by Martin Flowers

Lost & Found tells the story of the despair that is felt when growing up in a broken family environment. The dances take you through heartache, pain, and loneliness to ultimately discover the magic that can be found through love and chosen family. 

Is This What Love Is? | Choreographed by Olivia Huseonica

Inspired by the haunting, dream-like quality of the music to which it is performed, “Is This What Love Is?” explores the drama of caring deeply for someone or something. This piece brings to light the more melancholy aspects of love, and what it means to be a human overwhelmed with emotion.

Divine Serenity | Choreographed by Leiland Charles

Navajo pianist and composer Connor Chee is known for combining his classical piano training with his Native American heritage. Leiland brings to life a physical manifestation of the beauty in Connor’s songs through choreography that reflects the serenity found in nature. 

Symphony | Choreographed by Joshua Stayton

Inspired by a “La la land” theme, Joshua created Symphony as a way to express the many different types of relationships we experience in life and how those connections make us feel.

Kodumaa | Choreographed by Martin Flowers

Choreographer Martin Flowers unveils a lesser-known narrative of his Estonian heritage in this captivating dance piece. Exploring the poignant tale of Estonia’s liberation from the Soviet Union in 1991, commonly referred to as the “singing revolution,” Flowers weaves a mesmerizing story using the expressive language of dance, set to the evocative backdrop of Estonian music and compositions.
